Description

A truly unforgettable romantic story about family, love and serendipity, perfect for fans of Lucy Diamond, Beth Moran, and Jill Mansell ✨

Two people’s lives are about to collide… but will they find love?

Far away, on a beautiful Mediterranean island, a little girl writes a letter to the Universe, with one wish – for something to change so that her father, Luke, can be happy again.

Little does she know, there are two strangers in search of Luke already. Bee, who has just found out a deep secret about her past. And Alex, who dreams of his mother finding some of her memories again, and who believes Luke might be the key.

As Bee’s and Alex’s lives are drawn together – in entirely unexpected ways – will they only find what they’re looking for? Or could the Universe also have a love story planned for two people who might just be soulmates, if only their paths could cross…
